David's devotion to God and desire to reach out to everyone in this community are the base of his ministry and the focal point of Bay Hills Community Church. He has a unique ability to connect your life to a 2,000 year-old story in a manner that is exciting, easy to understand, and is applicable to the issues and struggles we all face.

His teachings are filled with familiar anecdotes, incorporate today’s headlines, and are told with a common-man’s perspective that is all driven by the desire to help you identify with Jesus’ message. David has a gift for not only teaching our congregation God's Word, but also applying it to our daily lives. With the help of his leadership skills, Bay Hills has grown from

David was born in Chicago, but raised in Barcelona where his parents had moved to serve as missionaries for the Spanish Bible Institute. It was in his adopted country of Spain, that he accepted Jesus into his life. Spending his childhood in Europe enriched him with the colorful Spanish culture and language, and his parent’s work exposed him to a life of Christian ministry.

He moved back to the United States to attend college, where he met Sandy, and chose to enter the ministry. David and Sandy married in 1990. He completed Seminary in 1993 and accepted the call to pastor at Bay Hills. They now have three children, Josh and Jessica in college in Los Angeles, and Julia who still keeps them busy and on their toes.

His passions permeate his teaching. Known for his humor, love for his wife & children, and his obsession for his hometown futbol side, F.C. Barcelona, God has blessed him with a remarkable ability to relate the Word so you can understand. No matter your background, your age, or what you might have heard before, Davis strives to energize you to deepen your spiritual journey.

Pablo was born in Guatemala City, Guatemala and came to the United States

when he was about one year old.He grew up in Palmdale, California just north

of Los Angeles. He is the youngest and tallest of four siblings, who at one point all served on the Worship Team at their local church.

Growing up Pablo knew God had a calling over his life which led him

to be heavily involved in the church, whether it was leading

the Worship team, Youth and/or Young Adult Ministries.

He Started playing all kind of instruments at the age of twelve including:

trombone, trumpet, acoustic guitar, bass, drums, and piano.

His first love though, has always been singing. He started leading worship

at the age of fifteen in the adult Sunday morning services.

His main passions now are Worship and serving Young Adults.

On July 25th, 2012 he met his beautiful wife, Ashley

at a young adult gathering. They fell in love and were

married in August 2014 and welcomed their first born,

Levi in April 2016. They are currently expecting their second baby

in February 2018.

For a majority of Pablo's life he was bi-vocational,

working secular jobs at Chase Bank and Kaiser Permanente

all while volunteering the majority of his free time at his

local church. Throughout that season in his life,

God was constantly reminding him why he was put on the earth,

and that was to serve God full time,

nudging Pablo to seek out ministry full-time.

Pablo joined the Bay Hills staff as Worship Pastor

beginning of 2017 and he is excited to create

and amplify a unique culture of worship at Bay Hills.

David Sauer

Youth Pastor

Growing up in Montana and Washington, Dave had an adventurous childhood.

He grew up with four older sisters and would eventually have five daughters of his own.

In the summer of 1989, while working at a shoe store in Lynwood, WA,

his world was completely rocked, and I do mean rocked!!!

He met the woman of his dreams, Darcy. He was mesmerized by her
beauty and personality.

4 months later they were engaged and on May 26th1990 were married.

God started them on the journey of a lifetime.

Today his family consist of that same wonderful lady, and their five daughters,

Savannah, Scarlett, Sinclaire, Sonniva, & Somersby.

If you're wondering about all the S names, it wasn’t planned until their third child, Sinclaire was born.

And because everyone asks, they are not from the South and neither of them

have ever seen Gone With the Wind.

Dave joined the Bay Hills Staff January 2014.

He was previously the junior high pastor at Adventure Church in Rocklin

and the youth pastor at a church in Yuba City.
